Winter Newsletter
NewsOver the past 21 years, CASACD provided volunteer advocacy for 606 children in Summit, Eagle Lake, and Clear Creek counties.
This year, we are also working with the Eagle County School District and the courts to provide support for children who are truant. This is a first step in changing a child’s story before we might see them in a Dependency and Neglect case.
While we still provide our traditional support as the voice of youth in dependency and neglect cases, we are partnering with businesses and nonprofit organizations to make a greater difference in our communities.
We look forward to your continued support of some of the most needy children, making a difference in their lives, and in the communities we live.

TrainingWe are offering bimonthly training in Eagle county, using a new hybrid training method which requires more independent work and less time in the classroom.
If you are in Dillon, stop by to visit, meet the staff and see where we are when not in a courthouse.
I would love to chat!

ReFUND What Matters
If you get a state income tax refund in 2020, you will have a new opportunity to donate some or all of it to support our ongoing work in the community.
The new program described by the ReFUND CO initiative puts you in charge of where your donation goes. It’s as simple as 1,2,3:
Decide how much of your refund to donate.
Enter CASA of the Continental Divide and our registration number 20023005105 in the Donate to a Colorado Nonprofit Fund line on your state income tax return or tax software – or give this info to your tax preparer when you share your tax documents.
Smile knowing you’ve helped a cause that matters to you
